Harvey C. Nix Jr., 71

H.C. was born in a pre-Civil War dwelling on Bearwallow Road in Henderson County. He was the son of the late Harvey Clyde and Louise Stroupe Nix. He was a graduate of Lee Edwards High School (Asheville High) in 1956. He played baritone horn in the high school band. He then attended N.C. State University where he continued playing trombone in a dance band, marching band and sang in Men's Glee Club.

He received a B.S. in nuclear engineering in 1960 and was known as ‘the kid,' as he was much younger than his classmates. Much support for his education was in part to a special scholarship program arranged by Dave Steel where he worked summers and after graduation. Because jobs were scarce for nuclear engineers, he went in the U.S. Army Reserve. His company of the 391st Combat Engineers was activated during the Berlin Crisis, and he continued training at Fort Benning, where he participated in atomic demolitions/munitions training. In 1962, he started with DuPont as an engineer at the Savannah River project and served as a reactor department shift supervisor.

In 1969, he went to work for Georgia Power Company at Plant McDonough in Atlanta, and in 1970 became the reactor engineer at Edwin I. Hatch Nuclear Plant near Baxley, Ga. He served as plant manager of Plant Alvin Vogtle near Augusta, Ga., and as plant manager at Hatch Nuclear Plant from 1982 to 1990.

He moved to Birmingham, Ala., and served as the general manager of nuclear support for more than five years until retiring in early 1996. He then retired to land where his great-grandparents once resided. He was highly regarded in the nuclear power industry and helped achieve excellent safety ratings at the Hatch facility. He had an integral role in the establishment of Southeastern Technical College in Vidalia, Ga.

He is preceded in death by his wife, Lynda Ellington Nix, in 2006, and survived by his current wife, Vivian Elizabeth Sitton-Nix. Survived by: son, Dr. Robert Jay Nix, and his fiancé, Amber Seals of Sherwood, Ore., and son, Harvey C. Nix III, PA-C of Hendersonville and his wife, Leslie, and three grandchildren, Dalton, Ethan and Ryan. Also, stepson, Victor Sitton of Raleigh, and Stephanie, his wife, their children, Alec and Lindsay; stepdaughter, Natalie Causby of Atlanta, and David, her husband, and their children, Brynley Thomas and Gracie Causby.

Also survived by his sister, Norma Jean Rogers, and brother, Daniel Nix, and his wife, Debbie, both of Asheville; and brother, Larry Nix, and his wife, Katie, of Rockville, Md.

Why is WOFF Obsessed with the Holocaust? « Cult Freedom

   Recently, in a discussion on Facebook®, this question was posed. It is a valid question. For one, is there any other church in North Carolina besides Word of Faith Fellowship (WOFF) that has been so taken up with this historic event? If there is one, it has not crossed my radar. Also, there were academic areas of emphasis in years past, remember the science conferences or the Thomas Jefferson conference? None of the others have developed into a road show. Road show? Yes, see the article here from an online newspaper in Deming, New Mexico. WOFF is taking it on the road, again. http://www.demingheadlight.com/ci_18082999?IADID=Search-www.demingheadlight.com-www.demingheadlight.com

   Here is an excerpt: “ Guests to the Night to Honor Israel will have a chance to see works of art on display, courtesy of the Holocaust Museum in Spindale, North Carolina. The museum was a dream come true for the Word of Faith Fellowship and the Word of Faith Christian School in North Carolina. Students, grades K-12 have their works of art across the nation, and now Deming can tour choice works on display at the DPS auditorium.
